Chapter 158 Shadow Guard Seventeen

Wen Yu did not resist after Shen Yu pulled him over. He was very close to Shen Yu, and when he lowered his head, his forehead was almost buried in the crook of Shen Yu's neck.

"I see you're not feeling well." Wen Yu said in a dull voice, wrapping his arms around Shen Yu's waist. "Do you still have the strength?"

Shen Yu's expression did not change. He said, "Even if it's not much, it can still support you."

Wen Yu snorted. The deep well was filled with a strong stench and the water was icy cold. His legs, which had not yet recovered, had been frozen to the point of losing consciousness.

Shen Yu seemed to know that Wen Yu was not in good condition. He easily found the acupuncture points on Wen Yu's back that connected to his lower body and massaged him for a while to relieve the pressure.

Wen Yu's fingertips trembled, he looked up at Shen Yu, and asked, "How do we get out?"

This abandoned well was at least a dozen meters long, and the bricks around the walls were slippery and had signs of rot and cracks, making it extremely easy to break and unreliable. In addition, the two of them had no friends in Kunning Palace, so at this time they could only soak in the water and look up at the sky in silence.

Shen Yu couldn't find anything else useful, so he said, "It looks like the only way is to climb up."

"Did the studio send security guards to meet you?" Wen Yu looked around and asked, "They might be useful."

Shen Yu paused when he heard this. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Wen Yu, his tone unchanged: "Yes, there is. But the task given to me by the host is to kill you. Do you think they will let you leave alive?"

Wen Yu was noncommittal: "I have a mask on my face, so they may not recognize me."

"Your mask has melted a long time ago." Shen Yu felt a little amused. "A mask made of this material will melt when it comes into contact with water. It will melt easily. Don't you know that?"

Wen Yu's expression froze, and he subconsciously covered his right cheek with his hand, which was full of uneven texture. He pursed his lips and looked at Shen Yu, and after a few seconds, he suddenly turned his face away.

The smile on Shen Yu's lips faded, and soon the curve returned to its original shape.

Wen Yu certainly didn't know about this at that time. The mask he had asked someone to bring him for a large sum of money was of inferior quality, and the palace servant had deceived him. Later, Wen Yu tried to escape from Kunning Palace wearing this mask, but was splashed with cold water and then dragged back to the place where he came from.

Shen Yu unconsciously curled his hands and clenched them. He said, "I also know some techniques for making masks. I'll teach you when I have time."

Wen Yu raised her eyelids: "How is the effect?"

"You'll know when you try it." Shen Yu didn't say much. He raised his head and said, "Let's go out first. Can you still move your legs?"

Wen Yu felt a slight tingling sensation on his unconscious legs. He frowned and said, "I don't have much strength."

"It's okay, just give me some support." Shen Yu held down Goujue Tuosheng who was floating beside the well wall with one hand. He exerted force with his palm and stretched his waist and abdomen out of the water.

Survive and survive: "..."

Wen Yu could not see the outline of Gouqie Toutousheng, let alone sense his existence. Fortunately, the light in the well was dim, and most of what he saw was black. Shen Yu deliberately adjusted the angle so that Wen Yu would not notice the abnormality in his hand.

Wen Yu lifted Shen Yu's thighs with his hands and used the force to prop him up. Shen Yu got out of the water, and he stepped on the gap between the stones below with his right foot and climbed up slowly.

As a multifunctional small system, he automatically changed his body into a square shape, allowing Shen Yu to use his body to move up little by little.

Wen Yu stayed down there, holding onto the stone walls on both sides of the well and looking up at Shen Yu climbing up.

After all, Shen Yubi was a person who had been trained in the apocalypse. He was agile and with support, he gradually increased his speed and went up.

The edges of the well mouth were particularly prone to brick cracks. Shen Yu held down his anxious head, stretched his arm out of the well mouth, groped down for some distance before grabbing the rusty iron chain outside, and then used the force to quickly climb out.

Shen Yu's vision suddenly became brighter. It was almost 3 p.m. outside, and the sky was bright, which also made the dense forest have a faint light.

Shen Yu was dripping with water all over his body. After he went out, he went to find something for Wen Yu.

Wen Yu's legs were weak, and even if he was given a stick, it would be difficult for him to climb out. Shen Yu looked around the well mouth, and when he turned around, he suddenly saw another figure squatting in the shade of the tree.

Shen Yu's nerves tensed up. He saw the black clothes of the shadow guard on the man and recognized his identity through the mask with different colors on his face: "Shadow Seventeen."

Ying Shiqi also stood up when he saw this. He walked slowly towards Shen Yu and said, "Brother, why are you lying to me? Is that Wen Yu in the well?"

Shen Yu did not answer. He stood in front of Ying Shiqi, his face gradually turning colder: "It has nothing to do with you."

"How can it have nothing to do with me?" Ying Shiqi seemed not to notice the murderous intent in Shen Yu's eyes. He walked to Shen Yu's side and took out the thick and long iron chain he had prepared. "I'm here to help you."

Shen Yu frowned. Before he could say anything, Ying Shiqi threw the long iron chain to Shen Yu: "Get him out by yourself. After he comes out, you can go first. I will clean up these rotten stalls."

Shen Yu stood still. The Yinglou had always been hostile to the Kingdom of Yue. Ying Shiqi's actions were tantamount to betraying the owner of the building, which really made Shen Yu a little suspicious: "Why?"

Ying Shiqi glanced at Shen Yu, his eyes wandering around, and finally stopped on Shen Yu's face: "No reason, you and I are on good terms, it's just a piece of cake for me to help you."

Ying Shiqi returned to the shade of the tree where he was before. He had already dealt with the bodies of the two secret guards before, and even handcuffed and tied the unconscious Danqing to the edge of the tree. He handled everything in a short time.

Seeing that Ying Shiqi had no intention of talking to him anymore, Shen Yu hesitated for a few seconds and then walked to the edge of the well with the iron chain.

"My queen, catch it." Shen Yu shook the iron chain in his hand towards Wen Yu who was still in the well. After getting Wen Yu's response, he extended the iron chain downwards at a controlled distance.

Wen Yu's legs were weak and he couldn't climb up, so after getting the iron chain, he simply tied up his body and let Shen Yu drag him out of the well.

"Someone is coming, you two hurry up." Wen Yu's face turned slightly pale after he came out. Before he could recover, he saw Ying Shiqi walking towards them and stuffing two pairs of human skin masks into their hands.

"The palace maids of Kunning Palace are still checking the outer hall. You can go back through the small path. I have drawn the route for you. Go and see for yourself."

Shen Yu stuffed the paper into his pocket. He didn't say much. He simply thanked Ying Shiqi and then took Wen Yu to the other side of the dense forest.

Wen Yu coughed twice, and he lay on Shen Yu's back, and before leaving, he glanced at Ying Shiqi. Ying Shiqi stood still, and soon after, another figure jumped down from the branches of the ancient tree in the east.

"Evening Rain Iris."
